Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

Goon But Not…Eeeyackaboo!
I take considerable delight in this release, personally, but I do acknowledge that it’s of marginal interest to most, even Goon Show fans who regularly listen to the more easily available collections.
The charm for me is in the welter of supporting material, rather than the often dreadful sounding surviving pieces of the oldest episodes. There’s documentary pieces on the Goons, on the series creation and production, on the cast and writers (including one that focuses on Larry Stephens, Spike Milligan’s main co-writer, and the man acknowledged as the positive influence on Spike’s work.) The Dirk Maggs-produced “Goon Again” is here as well, plus various excerpts from Spike Milligan’s anarchic Q series.
I enjoyed this, overall.

For the Goon Show completist
Mostly clips from the lost early Goons and a review of the history. If you are looking for episodes look to the other compilations, but if you want to know the story behind the show look here.
